Black Keys Bob Stevenson, master of the saloon piano, plays 30 original works he composed for this instrument. Performed on a vintage Gulbransen saloon piano, these pieces range from those possessing a Wild West saloon flavor to others reminiscent of classical music piano works. Most of the pieces were composed and performed from 2004-2007; state-of-the-art recording equipment was used here, producing an outstanding sound quality. The other works date from 1970-1971, early in Black Keys Bob's career; a reel-to-reel tape recorder captured these latter pieces, imparting on them a more rounded, other-worldly sound.
